This 1973 second printing of “Baby Boy” by Jess Gregg offers a well-preserved glimpse into the social and cultural upheaval of the early 1970s. Gregg’s semi-autobiographical novel follows the story of a young man grappling with his identity and place in a rapidly changing world. Published just a few years after the Stonewall riots, “Baby Boy” is considered a groundbreaking work of LGBTQ+ literature that challenged societal norms and gave voice to a marginalized community. Despite its lack of a dust jacket, this copy remains in good condition, with clean pages and a secure binding, making it an attractive addition for collectors of important 20th-century literature or those interested in the history of the LGBTQ+ rights movement.
